Genes affected
CLCN2 (HGNC:2020): (chloride voltage-gated channel 2) This gene encodes a voltage-gated chloride channel. The encoded protein is a transmembrane protein that maintains chloride ion homeostasis in various cells. Defects in this gene may be a cause of certain epilepsies. Four transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 16, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 100629). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with epilepsy (PMID: 21703448). This variant is present in population databases (rs201330912, gnomAD 0.009%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp570*) in the CLCN2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CLCN2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23707145). -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 13, 2018The W570X variant in the CLCN2 gene has been reported previously as an apparently homozygous pathogenic variant in two unrelated individuals with adult-onset leukodystrophy (Depienne et al., 2013). W570X has also been reported in an individual with idiopathic generalized epilepsy; however, no further information was provided (Klassen et al., 2011). Functional studies show that W570X results in decreased protein expression and abnormal protein localization (Depienne et al., 2013). This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The W570X variant is observed in 8/276228 (0.003%) alleles in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). We interpret W570X as a pathogenic variant. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 07, 2024Variant summary: CLCN2 c.1709G>A (p.Trp570X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 250326 control chromosomes. c.1709G>A has been reported in the literature in two unrelated homozygous individuals affected with leukoencephalopathy (Depienne_2013) and in patients with epilepsy (Klassen_2011). This publication also reported experimental evidence and demonstrated decreased mRNA levels in patient derived fibroblasts, consistent with an incomplete nonsense-mediated mRNA decay; in addition, the truncated protein, when expressed in transiently transfected COS7 cells, had an aberrant subcellular localization (Depienne_2013). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 100629). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
